At least you got Jennings and Bishop to make it feel like you were competitors for a few weeks!

Wed, 18 Sep 2013 03:12:23 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=2210674#comment-2800291With AD, Jennings, Patterson, WEBB, and Kyle TD’s in the RED zone should almost be automatic, but when have to add Musgrave and Ponder to the equation you get FG and a loss.

You have to “find a way” to make a player that is on the field the most effective.

You do not have to “find a way to get him on the field,” you say, “Hi I am the head coach and Patterson’s playing.”

Tue, 17 Sep 2013 22:55:51 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=2210674#comment-2799902Wow sheer panic already with firing the coach, the o.c., and the desertion of about 70% of the viking posters. I would suspect the suicide season didnt wait for the snow and came early already for the viking fans. Its going to one long winter.

Tue, 17 Sep 2013 21:39:36 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=2210674#comment-2799726Oh yeah, one more thing. How about playing Bishop? How has this guy not earned playing time? He was a beast in the preseason and Erin just isn’t cutting it in the middle. Move him back and play Bishop. That would make this LB group pretty darn good.

This has to be one of the worst combined coaching staff the Vikings have ever had. They won last year in spite of them riding the legs of AP.

Tue, 17 Sep 2013 21:35:01 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=2210674#comment-2799712Let’s see. How about put Cassell on the field too? Not that he’s much better than Ponder but he is BETTER! As much as I hate Pete Carroll I agree with his concept of getting the best players on the field regardless of who they are or where they were drafted.

At very least, Cassell can hit the side of the barn and hurt a defense for stacking the box. Ponder, not so much. As a Viking fan I’m tired of not having a decent QB other than Favre since 2004.

Cassell + Patterson + Jennings + AP + Rudolph will + success. Ponder is not there yet and who knows if he will ever be. He needs to learn to read past his first read.

The arrogance by the fans, the management and primarily from the biqueens media is and historically has been and will remain the poison pill of this expansion franchise.

Tue, 17 Sep 2013 20:18:59 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=2210674#comment-2799506Should have fired Musgrave after that abysmal game against the Packers where they were moving the ball with the run option and then inexplicably he quit using that and AP and tried ad naseum to use Webb as a pocket passer which isn’t his strength and that he is terrible at but Webb thrives at the run pass option. I despise Musgrave.

Tue, 17 Sep 2013 19:58:02 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=2210674#comment-2799460Going into the season I was pretty hopeful that the Vikings were going to win the division. In fact, I proclaimed in the comments section of this website. It looks like I was off base a little bit, something which I’m not afraid to admit. If I knew as much about football as I would like, I wouldn’t be wasting my time here. Now that I’ve said that, let me say this. The Vikings are not a bad team this year. It just turns out that they’re playing in a pretty tough division. There is a lot of season left, and I’m going to withhold my judgement for a few weeks. Even though last week was a tough loss I was glad to see the way the team played in the second half. We saw that kind of resolve out of them last season when they rallied back to make the playoffs. Let’s see if Leslie can hold the locker room together and run off some consecutive wins. We’re two games into Patterson’s career, and he’s pretty much already made a bigger impact than Troy Williamson. In the immortal words of Mike Tice “Enjoy the season”. Skol!

Tue, 17 Sep 2013 19:51:34 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=2210674#comment-2799437Patterson is basically another Dez Bryant, maybe a little better, maybe not quite as good. Lots of physical talent but at least for now he’s not a guy who can adjust to different defensive looks and play changes at the line. If he was up to speed in terms of understanding things obviously they’d be using him more.

Please keep Wright, Webb and Carlson on the bench—and Erin Henderson back to his old position

A fast receiver that can get 30 yards down field in a hurry and can really stretch a defence coupled with a QB that has a 10 yard arm.

That’s impossible. There is no way that could even remotely be close to the truth. There is no coaching staff in the NFL that would ever that something like that come to fruition.

I know lots of us Rubes play the coach at home game but when I know what play is coming I’m not sure how hard it is for the professional staff on the other side of the ball.

Get Patterson more involved,,,,,,,,,,groundbreaking coach. Now that you get that after a full preseason and two games I know we are in good hands.

While you are working on cutting edge stuff get Bishop in the game already. Erin plays like his name sounds.

It’s like watching 3 AJ Hawks playing LB for cripes sake.

Tue, 17 Sep 2013 15:45:54 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=2210674#comment-2798693Since about every third pass to Jerome Simpson turns into a pick six, maybe Patterson could take a few snaps away from Simpson.

Nah, not much chance of either, it seems…

Tue, 17 Sep 2013 14:19:42 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=2210674#comment-2798451So the guy in charge of who does and doesn’t play is saying he would like to see more Patterson..well, coach here’s an idea. PUT HIM IN THE GAME!!

The kid has fantastic talent, but I’d like to see him do more than return kicks and catch bubble screens. Put him on the outside with Jennings in the slot and let those two open up the field for Rudolph and Simpson. We have enough weapons including AD to open the field up, but it feels like Musgrave plays so close to the vest he has to dig in his pockets to find our gameplan

You can do whatever you want. Put him in the game! Throw him a few passes, give him a handoff. By the end of the year, Patterson will be one of the most exciting players in the NFL.
